I meant pullover driveways that lead into smaller preserves, not along the street, sorry should have clarified. Yes, Archer is notoriously dangerous at night. IO brewery is a great little oasis there that I frequent. Too much maybe?

There's also a really nice parking lot off 95th, on the north side of Maple Lake that is great for stargazing at night.

Ooohh, I know of many many stories.

Point is, I personally think it's fantastic that such a quiet place is getting recognition, a little validation that natural areas have significant value in large, urbanized settings.
